Hi!
I'm new to this
Just signed in today
I'm getting stressed and desperate
I have a beautiful pair of Peachface Lovebirds
Unfortunately the female has had an issue with her spine
Her toes stopped working, that was 3 weeks ago and now her legs have stopped
The vet has recommended putting her down BUT I've done plenty of research and there are plenty of handicapped birds
She's happy and healthy
She's adapted and is eating and drinking
But the situation is completely stressing me out
She isn't tame so it's a real struggle for us
I've made a little cubby out of a tissue box, I put her in there and watch TV in bed and see sits by my head
She's placid and fine but once I put her back in her cage, she's fearful again
I'm trying to tame her, I need lots of advise on that
We've been to the vets and had plenty of medicine so she's quite stressed but I think I've calmed her down a little bit
And I need advise on keeping her without moving legs
Anyone out there with a handicapped bird with paralysed legs
Explain how it works and if it's a happy life
She's in no pain and is healthy it's not fair to put her down
I really want this to work out
